"How to Optimize Knowledge FLOW (Free/Libre/Open Works)"

  • Date: Friday August 12th at 10:00am - 11:00am EDT (North America), 4:00pm - 5:00pm CET (Europe)
  • Speaker: Joseph Potvin
  • Abstract:
What sort of licensing and contracting might your courseware community put in place to foster optimal collaborative resourcing, distribution and evolution of the digital materials you will produce to support formal and informal learning about model-based engineering (MBE)?
In this participatory 1-hour webinar, we will discuss both conceptual and pragmatic elements to be considered in the process of resolving how the Papyrus IC Research/Academia community might manage its collection. "Big issues" that participants want to explore in greater detail will be identified and scheduled for follow-up.


"Papyrus-RT: Papyrus for Real-Time, introduction, current status and plans"

  • Date: Friday July 29th at 10:00am - 11:00am EDT (North America), 4:00pm - 5:00pm CET (Europe)
  • Speaker: Ernesto Posse
  • Abstract:
The development of Papyrus-RT, a specific version of Papyrus for UML-RT for real-time and embedded system development based on UML-RT, has made major progress over the last six months as a result of a closed collaboration between CEA, EclipseSource, Ericsson, and Zeligsoft. Beside UML-RT modeling support, Papyrus-RT also provides a C++ runtime and associated code generator.
In this webinar, we will discuss the motivations for the development of an open-source UML-RT solution, provide a brief introduction to UML-RT, an overview of the current status of the tool, demonstrate its different aspects, and discuss short/mid-term plan and roadmap. We will also provide an overview of the work that is currently being done on the development of a new hybrid textual/graphical modelling capability as well as its support for model diff/merge. If time allows, we will also show how to customize the code generator.


"Customizing Papyrus: Creating a streamlined product on the example of Papyrus for Information Modeling"

  • Date: Friday July 15th at 10:00am - 11:00am EDT (North America), 4:00pm - 5:00pm CET (Europe)
  • Speaker: Philip Langer
  • Abstract:
In this webinar, we will look in the details behind creating Papyrus for Information Modeling. In particular, this includes the following topics:
- Eclipse platform
- Product definition and configuration
- Papyrus customizations
- Viewpoints
- Creation menu
- Property views
- Diagram styles
- UI simplifications
- Activities and capabilities
- Perspective extensions
- Programmatic simplification
